Hi there, I'm Brenda!

My approach to therapy is meeting the person where they are and working together to develop a treatment plan.

My focus

I work with patients needing care for their mental health, including anxiety and mood disorders.

My approach

My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each patient I work with. I most frequently utilize CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused approaches to help clients.

My communication style

I foster an environment where clients feel safe to be vulnerable and imperfect. I like to create space that allows the clients to be themselves.

My journey to mental healthcare

I enjoy psychology because it allows us to research, learn, and find ways to understand ourselves and others.

My goals for you

I like to work with the client to develop their goals for treatment.

Our first session

The first session is about rapport building and getting to know one another.

Life is challenging. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I want you to know you don’t have to face it alone. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to work through the challenges holding you back.
